NOTICE!

There are a number OF names on
he subscription list OF the TINES tc
whom the paper has been regularly
sent for two years and longer, without
any compensation whatever. These
persons have been thus favored III
the hope that they would come up and
settle for their paper, but the indui-
cence has been without result, except
to cur injury. Now the necessities
of the Office force the discontinuance
Of any further sratuitous distribution
of the TINES. Therefore, notice is
given thai unless we hear satisfactol.i-
.l4rfrom those derelict subscribers be-
tween this ana the first Of April next,
their names Will lie dropped from our
mailing list after that date.
We endearor to make the TIMES
worth the money asked for it. To Go
this we are at a great expense OF time
and money, and we cannot afford to
send the paper out FOR nothing:
This is not written to offend, but Isl
simple statement Of uuvarnished facts.
and we hope the friends Of tie Tee;
will see it in its proper light.

20 the NannInS Tines.

Two weeks ago we copied an article
from tie Manning TI&Es nnder (''oi
oce,) the caption of"A Timely Qaer,s:
One sentence in it was pretty badly
mixed up and a word was spelled
wrong; whereupon brother Dinkins
concludes that the type settlers and
proof readers of the -ldca1'cc were or
a spree.
The article in question WAS not
copied by us directly from tie Man
ring Tr5zs but we got it from an ex-
change, which had taken it from the
TINES.
The article, as published BY US, was
cerJatiHn, ct Ejeratin,, Ct SeT(a;tm, as We
got it.
We noticed tire mixed condition OF
the paragraph alluded 10, and intend
ed to straiehten i. out, but overlooked
ii somehow We always try 70 be
very careful, but accidents viii hap

We do not remember having been
on spree about that tine, brother

AN UNHAPPY PRINoEss.-The nervous
system of the Princess of Wales has been so
worn and tried By recent events that not
only her favorite bromide has ceased to have
any effect, but maid is forced to sleep in
room adjoining that occupied by Her Royal
Highness. Like all highly-sensitiVe and
very deaf people, she often imagines extra
ordinary noises, and this PECULIARLY, which
for years has been bore at Ssndringham,
has now, doubtless owing TO the sleepless
nights passed by the bedside of the royal
measly ones, become an absolute torment to
her surroundings. Her Royal Highness's
great terror is of FIRE, and the late catastrc.
phe at Exeter, following that of the Opera
Comique in Paris. SO upset her that she
vowed she would never enter theatre
again. Her CONSTANT terror is that Prince
George. her pet, will be burned TO death ct
sea, and that wicked youth has on more
than one occasion taken advantage of biz
mothers nervousness in this particular to
spin yarns which would make the best sea

A PRETTY GOOD STORY John A. Z.
Boteler was u boy at Princeton College,
says Frank &. Carpenter in the Cosmopoli'
tan when President Jackson made his ia
nous tour through the Eastern States in
1888, and his eyes frightened es he told me
how he with several of his mates ran away
from college the night before and went to
meet the President at Trenton that they
might accompany him TO Princeton. Dur
ing the journey the following incident oc'
Cured, which | give in Judge Boteler's own

the surrounding country to see the Pres-
